Hot Filament Chemical Vapor Deposition technique was used to synthesize diamond particles with germanium-vacancy color centers on a germanium substrate. The formation of color centers occurred during the growth of diamond particles due to the incorporation of germanium atoms formed as a result of a crystalline germanium wafer etching with atomic hydrogen. The conditions of Chemical Vapor Deposition process which affect the photoluminescence of color centers of germanium vacancy in diamond particles, are considered. The highest photoluminescence intensity of germanium-vacancy color centers was achieved for diamond particles obtained on a substrate at a surface temperature close to the melting temperature of germanium. The photoluminescence spectra of the diamond particles also showed lines presumably associated with the optical centers which contain tungsten.

A system has been designed and constructed to produce diamond particles by inductively coupled radio-frequency, plasma-assisted chemical vapor deposition. This is a low-pressure, low-temperature process used in an attempt to deposit diamond on substrates of glass, quartz, silicon, nickel, and boron nitride. Several deposition parameters have been varied including substrate temperature, gas concentration, gas pressure, total gas flow rate, rf input power, and deposition time. Analytical methods employed to determine composition and structure of the deposits include scanning electron microscopy, absorption spectroscopy, scanning Auger microprobe spectroscopy, and Raman spectroscopy. Analysis indicates that particles having a thin graphite surface, as well as diamond particles with no surface coatings, have been deposited. Deposits on quartz have exhibited optical bandgaps as high as 4 5 eV. Scanning electron microscopy analysis shows that particles are deposited on a pedestal which Auger spectroscopy indicates to be graphite. This is a phenomenon that has not been previously reported in the literature.

To enhance a nucleation rate of diamond particles, hydrogenated amorphous carbon (a-C: H) intermediate layers have been formed by radio frequency plasma chemical vapor deposition (CVD) on silicon substrates prior to diamond deposition by hot filament CVD, and the effect of a-C: H intermediate layers on the nucleation and growth rate of diamond particles is studied by varying the thickness of a-C: H films. It is found that diamond particles are well synthesized on thin a-C: H intermediate layers and the nucleation density and growth rate are decreased with increasing the thickness of a-C: H films. Atomic force microscope observations show that a-C: H intermediate layers with rough surface are more effective than the smooth surface for diamond synthesis. Raman spectroscopy shows that the bonding state of carbon atoms in a-C: H films does not change by varying the thickness of a-C: H films. It is proposed that diamond nucleation is affected by the surface morphology rather than the bonding state of carbon atoms in a-C: H films.

Morphology of twinned diamond particles grown by chemical vapor deposition was characterized by atomic force microscopy in both contact and tapping modes. Quantitative angle measurements using a surface normal algorithm were performed on untwinned crystals, penetration twins, re-entrant corners, and fivefold dimples. Tip-sample interaction is discussed. The morphology of the penetration twins and some of the re-entrant corners can be explained by low order Σ3 twins and flat crystallographic surfaces. Abnormally shallow re-entrants with large vicinal faces are attributed to rapid nucleation of new layers at a point along the re-entrant intersection.
